Let us use carbon in this example. Carbon is 12.01 grams per mole.
Let us say we have 2.36 X 10^22 atoms of carbon
2.36 X 10^22 atoms carbon (1mole Carbon/6.022 X 10^23)(12.01 grams Carbon/1mol Carbon )
= 0.47 grams Carbon.
6.022 X 10^23 is Avogadro's number and is a constant that is a mole of anything. Just as a dozen eggs is always 12 eggs.
1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 atoms = molar mass in g/mole
?atoms x 1 mole/6.022 x 1023 atoms x molar mass = mass in grams
For example: What is the mass of 2.00 x 1024 atoms of carbon?
Answer: 1 mole C = 6.022 x 1023 atoms C = 12.0107g/mole C
2.00 x 1024 atoms C x 1 mole C/6.022 x 1023 atoms C x 12.0107g/mole C = 39.9g C
1. Find the Atomic Mass of the element in atomic mass units.
2. Divide the mass of the element by its atomic mass.
3. Multiply the result by Avogadro's Number.
Multiply the mass by the inverse of molar mass, and then multiply by Avogadro's number.
molar mass and Avogadro's number
To convert the number of chloride atoms to mols of chlorine atoms, simply multiply by Avogadro's number. This number is 6.022E23. Note that chlorine typically exists as a diatomic molecule, consisting of two chlorine atoms.
divide the number of atoms by avogadros number (6.022*10^23), the resulting number is the number of moles you have. Multiply the number of moles of atoms by the molar mass (found on any periodic table) and the answer is how many grams of the substance you have.
We convert units to moles because in reactions atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios. The whole numbers are related to the number of atoms, not their weights.
You would multiply the number of mols by Avogadro's number which is 6.0221415 x 1023
molar mass and Avogadro's number
To convert grams into atoms, you have to convert them into moles first. Get the molar mass and multiply it by the number of moles to get the atoms.
To convert the number of chloride atoms to mols of chlorine atoms, simply multiply by Avogadro's number. This number is 6.022E23. Note that chlorine typically exists as a diatomic molecule, consisting of two chlorine atoms.

We convert units to moles because in reactions atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios. The whole numbers are related to the number of atoms, not their weights.
The molecular formula of 2-pentene is C5H10 and the molecular formula of pentane is C5H12. Therefore, (12 - 10) or 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule will be needed to convert pentene to pentane.
You would multiply the number of mols by Avogadro's number which is 6.0221415 x 1023
Helium because it has fewer atoms, so there are more atoms needed to have 3.5 grams of it.
Bonds are needed in order for atoms to combine
(grams) x (6.02 x 10^23) / (mass number of specific element in grams)
3.7x10^3 millimoles is 3.7 moles. To convert moles to atoms, multiply by avagadro's number. 3.7 x 6.022x10^23 is 2.22814x10^24 atoms.
Chlorine-35 is 76 % and chlorine-37 is 24 %.
